BSc (Hons) Criminology and Sociology offers the exciting opportunity to combine the study of two cutting-edge disciplines. The course is aimed at students who are interested in both disciplines and want to study crime and its causes, patterns, consequences, and responses by situating them in the wider context of society. The first year introduces students to the building blocks of criminology and sociology: key sociological and criminological theories, social divisions and problems, the criminal justice system, crime policy and practice, and key social transformations such as digital culture. Students will receive training in a wide range of research methods during the first two years, to become equipped to undertake their own independent research project in the final year. Our large, multi-disciplinary department believes in offering extensive optionality to study specific areas of criminology and sociology in-depth. Throughout the degree, there is an emphasis on developing skills and experiences that are relevant to professional careers, including work experience, study-abroad schemes, and independent project work.In your final year of study, you will have the opportunity remain on BSc (Hons) Criminology and Sociology or to specialise by choosing a pathway and graduating with an exit award in one of these areas:- Justice Studies- Quantitative Methods- Global Youth Justice This course has a foundation year available - UCAS code CRS0.
